Meeting with a difference this week, we held our meeting jointly with the RC
of Palm Beach at The Well Tavern at Wellard Village, good turn-out from
both clubs.
PP Bob Thompson is busily making enquiries
concerning the Rotary International Convention
for 2020 being held at Honolulu, Hawaii
Honolulu, June 2020.
With the meeting being held as a social event jointly with RC Palm Beach and
with ‘no business’ on the agenda reports for the Bulletin were a little scarce.
PDG John Iriks and PP Michael Nella and crew are providing for St Vincent’s
School a Father’s Day Breakfast for about 500 kids and fathers, consisting of
bacon & egg rolls and a sausage sizzle on Thursday morning before school
starts, work begins by 6.30am to serve at 7.30am. Fathers will then attend their
children’s classes from 8.30am.

A night of chit-chat with our fellow Rotarians
from Palm Beach took place night at
The Well Tavern in Wellard.
https://www.thewelltavern.com.au/
The staff handled the large contingent in an
easy and pleasant manner so that we could enjoy
each other’s company. A photo gallery follows
including Stephen having returned from his travels.
News in this minute that Max and Diane arrived home last night as well.
Next week’s meeting being the first of the month is Guest Speaker free except
for Eric who will take the opportunity to explain Club Runner in more detail.
Also we would like to challenge a few members to bring along a Limerick to
share with everyone for a bit of fun. Here’s an example.
Limericks I cannot compose,
With noxious smells in my nose.
But this one was easy,
I only felt queasy,
Because I was sniffing my toes.
How is the Lid Collection going? Don’t forget to bring them along to Rotary
and put them in the blue bucket.
I’m pleased to report that Ann Samut is making steady progress in her recovery
and Greg Williams looks like a panda after an eye surgery yesterday but is also
recovering well.
Our thoughts go to Marge and Edd in their role as carer and we hope your
patients are not too demanding!!
Last night’s Citizenship Ceremony was full of surprises.
Two past members joined the ranks of Australians.
Congratulations Matt White and Cheryl DeSouza

Agenda included:

dinner, Christmas in the park, Hāngi set for October (awaiting confirmation) and other social
functions primarily designed to get us and guests together, rather than raise funds.

Congratulations to former members Matt White and Cheryl DeSouza

Polio This Week 22nd August 2019
Nigeria marked three years since the last case of wild poliovirus (WPV) was detected within its borders. Because Nigeria is the last polio-endemic country in Africa, this milestone opens the door for the potential WPV-free certification of the entire WHO AFRO region after the Africa Regional Certification Commission (ARCC) evaluation as early as mid-2020. While this is an important programmatic milestone, the region has not yet been certified polio-free and It will be critical for polio program to maintain momentum. .
Summary of new viruses this week: Afghanistan — one wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) case; Pakistan — one WPV1-positive environmental sample; Angola — one cVDPV2 case; Ghana — one cVDPVE2 case.
Rotary International announced on 3 June a three-year
partnership renewal with its disaster relief project partner,
ShelterBox. For almost 20 years, this unique humanitarian
alliance has supported families with a place to call home after disaster.
Rotary is a global network whose members take action to make a lasting difference in their communities
– and worldwide. ShelterBox provides emergency shelters and other essential items to support families
who have lost their homes in disaster.
What began as a local connection with one Cornish Rotary Club has led to an international movement
that’s provided 140,000 ShelterBox family tents or 390,000 ShelterKits worldwide to date (a value of
over £54 million).
First adopted as a millennium project by the Rotary Club of Helston-Lizard in 2000, the support of
Rotary members and clubs around the world saw ShelterBox become Rotary’s Project Partner in Disaster
Relief in 2012. Since then, the partnership has helped transform ShelterBox into an internationally
recognized disaster relief charity, supporting families with emergency shelter after disaster.

“While having their evening dinner together, a little girl looked up at her father and asked,
“Daddy, you’re the boss in our family, right?”
The father was very pleased to hear it and confidently replied, “Yes, my little princess.” The girl then
continued, “ Is that because mommy put you in charge?”
Joe: What does your father do for a living?
Jon: He’s a magician. He performs tricks, like sawing people in half.
Joe: Do you have any brothers or sisters?
Jon: Yep, four half-sisters and a half-brother.
Martin had just received his brand new drivers license. The family troops out to the driveway, and
climbs in the car, where he is going to take them for a ride for the first time. Dad immediately heads
for the back seat, directly behind the newly minted driver.
“I’ll bet you’re back there to get a change of scenery after all those months of sitting in the front
passenger seat teaching me how to drive,” says the beaming boy to his father.
“Nope,” comes dad’s reply, “I’m gonna sit here and kick the back of your seat as you drive, just like
you’ve been doing to me all these years.”
A small boy was at the zoo with his father. They were looking at the tigers, and his father was telling
him how ferocious they were.
“Daddy, if the tigers got out and ate you up…”
“Yes, son?” the father asked, ready to console him.
“ …Which bus would I get to go home?”
I would give you what you really want on Father’s Day, but I can’t afford to move out yet.
Dad, your father’s day gift is another year of not having to pay for my wedding.
I smile because you are my father. I laugh because there is nothing you can do about it.
